Matthew 15:22

15:22 A ¹  Canaanite woman from that area came ²  and cried out, ³  “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is horribly demon-possessed!”

Matthew 24:38

24:38 For in those days before the flood, people ⁴  were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark.

[15:22]  ¹ tn Grk “And behold a Canaanite.” The Greek word ἰδού (idou) has not been translated because it has no exact English equivalent here, but adds interest and emphasis (BDAG 468 s.v. 1).

[15:22]  ² tn Grk The participle ἐξελθοῦσα (exelqousa) is here translated as a finite verb. The emphasis is upon her crying out to Jesus.

[15:22]  ³ tn Grk “cried out, saying.” The participle λέγουσα (legousa) is redundant here in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[24:38]  ⁴ tn Grk “they,” but in an indefinite sense, “people.”
